Eighteen years after the first Rush Hour made a ton of dough, CBS offers a marked-down series version. Our review is here.

Also, David Hasselhoff is back yet again in Hoff the Record, a six-episode “mockumentary” that launched last summer in the UK and now comes to these shores via Mark Cuban’s AXS TV. We take a look at that one right here.

Was there not a single minority Republican to be found in Milwaukee Tuesday night? CNN’s three-hour “town hall” meeting, in which Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and John Kasich all individually participated, included a total of 27 questions from the audience. All were from whites, which is more than a little jarring in this day and age. Our commentary is on the Network News & Reviews page.Ed Bark

Sometimes enough is enough. Particularly where CNN and Donald Trump are concerned. The network could and should have called him on several obvious misstatements and contradictions during the time spanning his post-debate interview Thursday night and his welcoming of Dr. Ben Carson’s endorsement Friday morning.

It all made for another ratings smash in D-FW, with almost a half-million viewers partaking. The complete numbers are on our Dallas-Fort Worth TV page.Ed Bark
